She contacted me on Facebook telling me she got my name from a site I'm registered at. I e-mailed her and I got this:
I'm glad you replied me and interested in working for our family,
Below is a letter about us. Hope you'll enjoy working for our family.


THE FAMILY
I work full time as Anesthesiologists (8.00am to 5:30pm). my husband
is a Mining and geological engineers who run his own pipeline
bussiness. We are both busy and so we need some assistance with Olivia
our daughter. I would like her to learn another language to
experience a different culture.

We live on 175 Leuders street, San Marcos Texas, USA. i am down to
earth and blunt. i am friendly and easy to get along with so, you can
adapt to our lifestyle so easily. We are devoted Christian so if you
smoke dont do it in the house or in my daughter presence.


OLIVIA
Oivia, my daughter will be 3 by November, we enrolled her in
kindergaten School, this year after she'll proceed to elementary
school. She likes to play and she is friendly as well. She likes
candy, Chocolate and she enjoys watching cartoon. getting along with
her would be easy i can assure you.

SALARY
You will be entitled to a monthly pay of $1450 and you will also be
given $90 per week for petty expenses which you might need. This pay
is negotiable and open to review upon arrival.

SCHEDULE
The work schedule include, getting Olivia ready for School, Collecting
her from School, getting meal ready, taking her through homework, food
shopping and house keeping along with meal preparation. Taking her out
on her bike to the park. There is a good bus service and train network
however, providing a small car will give you more freedom. Occassional
night out and evening schedule can be a greed when required.

ROOM
A well funished room will be made available together with a personal
computer with internet service to keep up with relatives. We will give
you as much as privacy as you desire. I'll rather start as soon as
possible if not immediately, but any date of your choice would be
fine. You have weekend off as my husband will not go to work except
special overtime.

STUDY
You will be allowed to study in any school of your choice if need be.
I can help out as regards tuition fees. We have good universities and
colleges here

I want your response as regards taking up the position. will get more
pictures for you. I will also like to know how long you want to stay
and whether the salary package is fine by you. Do you have a valid
passport and the necessary document for VISA application? please get
back to me as soon as possible.

Regards.


The first thing that was suspicious was the big payment. Then I got a second e-mail.

As regards Visa, flight and other traveling document, i think its best
we get through an agency. they helped our neighbour with their last
Aupair and it was successful and secure. One of our friends had their
aupair last years from Armenia who processed an invalid visa, he was
caught and they went through some court cases. I hope you are okay
with this securing measure as we want to prevent any hitch from
invalid visa.

Concerning the Visa processing and traveling expenses, our family will
pay part of the total cost while you pay rest which i think is
affordable but i cant give you the cost breakdown now until you make
contact. I dont want us to make any delay so you can join us soon.

Furthermore, you have to contact Mr Kelvin Richard; The International
relation Officer of Au pair america Agency on this email
[email protected] for the total cost of visa processing, work
permit insurance and other traveling documents. Tell him your name,
full contact address, cell number with international code, your
country and how long you will stay with us and that you have your host
family in America (Evans Family, 175 Leuders street, San Marcos Texas,
USA)
please get back to me with the details given to you by them so we can
have a better discussion about the payment. please contact them as
soon as possible. We cant wait to have you here. I attached a picture
of the room provided for you, hope you like it.

Regards

Evans
